Full marks to the Russians, they wanted it more and worked harder to get it.

The Dutch looked like they thought they were going to win this game at half-pace and that simply wasnt the case.

I'm disappointed but hopefully Spain will win tomorrow and Germany will go all the way.

I'm more surprised that anything. The Dutch should know better. I even said it before the game, if the Dutch underestimate the Russians or take the game lightly they would lose and they did both and lost.

In the end, it was poor Dutch defending that did them in, they looked tired and disinterested in the second half of added time.
